All But Two Colored From
Granville Come From
• Vance County
Six now patients appearing for the
Ust time sUeaded the clirc
i old here Wednesday, four of them
from Vance and two from Granville
county. Two of the four from Vance
and both those from Granville were
colored.
Dr. A. D. Gregg, health officer, said
there were ten or eleven patients pre
sent who have iteen at the monthly
clinics before this, making a total of
16 or 17 in all for the day.
Dr. W. F. Cole, of Greensboro, was
in charge of the clinic, as he has been
since it was inaugurated here last
spring. He made the examinations.
Present Wednesday were also J. T.
Barnes, State supervisor of cripple
work, and Miss Meismer, his assistant,
both being from the State Board of
Health. Mr. Barnes approved several
orders for braces.
The two colored twins from Towns
ville, eight years old, who were at the
August clinic, were back Wednesday,
and they were ordered to a cripple
hospital for colored children in
Greensboro to have braces
Their limbs will be fitted from the
knees down. Neither has any legs,
ether than mere stubs, except that
one has a semblance of a leg from the
knee down.
Each month the clinic is held in
Henderson for the benefit of cripple
children in Vance and adjoining coun
ties. A much larger attendance is an
ticipated in October, including a num
iter of children from adjoining coun
ties, Dr. Gregg said.

Mr. Johnson says that the Junior
Order, which has always fought for
public education and the principles
upon which our great government was
huilded, realizing the need of greater
training in public speaking and the
perils which face our government,
think this a good opportunity to ac
quaint the public with these dangers
and to develop self-expression.

On point number one, Cutlar Moore.
State board chairman, was reticent i
only in declining to be drawn into
any controversy with Mayor Cooper,
who had termed the board’s advertis
ing action "insane.”
Md. Moore pointed to subsection
(m) of-Section 3 of the ABC act
which says that the State board shall
“have all other powers which may be
reasonably implied from the granting
of express' powers... .together with
such other powers as may be inciden
tal to, or convenient for carrying out
ik...powers and duties herein given to
said board.”
He stressed the fact that the hoard

ers it has, but declared that it i
tends no abridgment of the freedoi

believes liquor houses will gladly sub

The second point needs little said
as its -truth is almost universally
conceded.
As for Mr. Cooper, he has lost no
chance to hit at the State officials.
